RADIO COMMUNICATION APPARATUS AND RADIO COMMUNICATION METHOD

摘要

A radio communication apparatus, which has a plurality of antennas (101-1 to 101-M), comprises: a propagation path information acquisition unit (105) that acquires information related to a propagation path between the radio communication apparatus and another radio communication apparatus; an index calculation unit (106) that uses that information to calculate an index related to an angular expansion of the propagation path; a weighting factor generation unit (107) that uses that information and the index to generate weighting factors corresponding to the respective antennas; and a weighting factor multiplication unit (110) that multiplies signals to be processed by the respective antennas by the weighting factors corresponding to the respective antennas that process those signals.
